Dani reported Touré actions to Human Resources and he was immediately fired. Afterward, Touré sent her several Instagram direct messages apologizing for his behavior.

When the article was published, Touré had yet to say anything. But since then, he’s broken his silence.

“On the show, our team, including myself, engaged in edgy, crass banter, that at the time I did not think was offensive for our tight-knit group. I am sorry for my language and for making her feel uncomfortable in any way. As a lead on the show, I should have refrained from this behavior. I have learned and grown from this experience.”

Coincidentally, Terry Crews was supposed to be sitting down with Touré to discuss his journey toward career success.

But Crews, who has been very vocal about his own sexual assault, announced that he would not be appearing on the show.
